CVE-2025-14408

Information disclosure via PDF parser out-of-bounds read

Published Dec 23, 2025 · Updated Dec 23, 2025

Out-of-bounds read in Soda PDF Desktop 14.0.509.23030 allows remote attackers to disclose process memory through a crafted PDF file. The PDF parser fails to validate user-supplied file data before reading past the end of an allocated object. Exploitation requires the target to visit a malicious page or open a malicious file, and the resulting disclosure can support a separate code-execution exploit.
